Yay for comics that state the obvious. You could probably remove about half the panels and the punchline (if you can all it that) will still make perfect sense.

Absolutely hilarious. I have noticed an extreme decrease in "Wii-bashing" in the latter years [09-10], but it never stops and always get's old. I'm not saying that the Wii isn't due for an update, but seeing as we already have motion controls, as well as classic controls [limited, but available], The only upgrade they could make is graphical, and I just don't see it being required. The Wii is good at what it does. Which is bring GOOD gimmicks [with the unfortunate side effect of bad ones as well] to the gaming industry.
They do it with the Wii, they do it with the DS, and I'll be willing to bet the next iteration Nintendo Console will have an insane gimmick just as well. [Plus, Wii sales aren't all Nintendo climbs up from. Let us not forget that the DS brings in a very impressive net worth as well, and with the 3DS coming out, That's even more revenue just waiting to happen.]
